Reports are circulating that Palm is releasing webOS 1.4.5 for its Pre and Pixi handsets. The update is reportedly being pushed out to handsets worldwide including those on Sprint and the French carrier SFR. The update addresses several security flaws, fixes an error when downloading podcasts, improves text entry in web page text fields, and provides support for webOS PDK. Palm’s website is a bit confused on the update with the SFR update appearing on the support page for Sprint. Thankfully, most webOS owners will receive the update over-the-air and have the proper version delivered to their handsets. Verizon Wireless and AT&T customers will have to wait for webOS 1.4.5 as the two American carriers are apparently not included in the first wave of updates. Any webOS owners not on Big Red or Ma Bell have webOS 1.4.5 delivered to their handsets yet?

    Where is the Palm Post that is rumored to have 2 front facing cameras and 3 slide out keyboards? I just can’t do touch screen keyboards, let a alone one physical keyboard.

    No OTA yet and I’ve checked the update box several times and it is generating nothing, not even an app update.

    If you don’t like Palm- then don’t read about it- nobody is forcing you. Some of us are huge fans and appreciate the updates though!

    I’m sure of one thing: all of you Palm haters haven’t used WebOS.

  • Steve C

    No update. WebOS still rocks.

  • PTashe

    Still no update as of July 8th! BTW..WebOS is the best OS on the market! It kills Android and IOS, all that’s needed now is a great device. Don’t let the device fool you….WebOS is absolutely the BEST!

    This lil’ thing is amazing … just waiting for Flash 10.1 to be on it and it will be completely perfect for me.

    The update still hasn’t arrived in the US yet, mostly likely due to carrier interference as foreign carriers already have it.
